Kalina | Strapless Bow Cocktail Mini Dress
Strapless Jacquard Cocktail Dress with a Statement Back Bow
Meet the cocktail dress that shines in a room and in photos. Kalina is a strapless mini in a raised floral jacquard. It has a seamed, fitted bodice and a full A-line skirt that holds its shape. An oversized bow sits at the back above lace-up detailing, so it works as a formal mini dress for holiday parties, fall cocktail evenings, birthdays and winter formal events.
Product Details
- Fabric look/feel: Structured jacquard with a tonal floral pattern and a soft sheen that catches the light
- Cut/Fit: Fitted bodice with vertical seaming that flows into a full, sculpted A-line skirt

- Pockets: Side pockets set into the skirt seams, keeping the silhouette clean
- Length: Mini length that sits at mid-thigh
- Style: Polished and playful, made for cocktail parties, holiday dinners and formal nights out
Styling Tips
- Pair the pink version with clear or nude strappy heels, a delicate pendant and gold bangles for a fresh cocktail party look.
- For fall evenings, throw a cropped tailored blazer or a cozy faux fur wrap over the shoulders and add sleek heeled ankle boots.
- Style the white version with white sandals, pearl earrings and a mini top-handle bag for rehearsal dinners, engagement parties or New Year's Eve.
Care
Spot clean when you can, or hand wash gently in cold water and lay flat to dry. A cool iron on the reverse helps keep the jacquard texture and the bow's shape. Always check the care label before washing.
Size & Fit
The bodice is fitted through the bust and waist, and the skirt stands away from the body with plenty of volume. A strapless style stays put best with a close fit at the bust, so pick your usual size for a snug top. If you're between sizes, choose the size that fits your bust best.
